LICENSE AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT dated and effective July 1, 2008, is between the AMERICAN ANIMAL HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION (“AAHA”), with its principal offices located at 12575 W. Bayaud Ave., Lakewood, CO 80228 and MWI Veterinary Supply Co. (“MWI”) with its principal offices located at 651 S. Stratford, Suite 100, Meridian, Idaho 83680.

WHEREAS, AAHA is an organization exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code;

WHEREAS, MWI is an Idaho for profit corporation engaged in distributing animal health products to veterinarians including members of AAHA;

WHEREAS, AAHA and MWI desire to enter into an agreement whereby MWI shall be granted an exclusive license to use the registered trademark “AAHA MarketLink” and such other Proprietary Materials as defined in this Agreement solely in connection with the AAHA Marketlink Program (“Program”) whereby MWI shall market and sell veterinary products to AAHA members; and

WHEREAS, MWI shall market its products to AAHA members in connection with the Program and under the name AAHA Marketlink;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:

1. Statement of Purposes and Objectives. MWI shall be recognized as the sole AAHA endorsed distributor of veterinary products to AAHA members in connection with the Program. The overall objective of AAHA in granting a license to MWI is to provide a key economic benefit to AAHA members, generate revenue that can be used by AAHA for its existing programs and services and develop new programs and services that meet the needs of AAHA and its membership.

2. Relationship of the Parties. Neither party shall represent or hold itself out to be a legal representative, joint venturer, or partner of the other party. MWI and AAHA are independent contractors and are not authorized to make any contract, agreement, warranty or representation on behalf of the other party or to create any obligations, express or implied, on behalf of the other party without the prior written consent of that party.

3. Licensing Royalty and Payments. In exchange for an exclusive license to use the federally registered mark “AAHA Marketlink” as well as a non-exclusive license to use the AAHA name (collectively the “Marks”) and the AAHA membership and mailing lists (all such intellectual property is collectively referred to as “Proprietary Materials”) only in conjunction with the Program, MWI agrees to:

3.1. Minimum License Payment. During the term of this Agreement, and any renewal terms, pay AAHA a minimum license royalty of $25,000 per year. (“Minimum License Payment”) The first installment shall be payable upon execution of this Agreement and subsequent installments shall be payable on July 15^th of each year.

3.2. Yearly Royalty Payment. For a period no longer then ten (10) years, MWI shall pay an amount equal to 0.10% of the Gross Sales to AAHA members from July 1 to June 30 (whether purchasing through the Program or MWI) which exceeds the Sales Base, less the Minimum License Payment (“Yearly Payment”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Gross Sales” shall be defined as MWI’s invoiced sales plus agency orders transmitted by MWI to Merial. The Yearly Payment shall be payable by MWI to AAHA by July 15^th of each year.

3.3. Sales Base. The “Sales Base” shall be defined as AAHA Services Corporation’s and MWI’s total revenues and Merial agency sales to AAHA members (whether purchasing through the Program or MWI) for the period from May 1, 2007, through April 30, 2008, equal to /**/. For a period of sixty (60) days from the effective date of this Agreement, the parties may revise the Sales Base, as applicable, to accurately reflect the total revenues and Merial agency sales to AAHA members (whether purchasing through the Program or MWI) for the period from May 1, 2007, through April 30, 2008.

3.4 Example. If Gross Sales to AAHA members in year 2009 equaled /**/, the Yearly Royalty Payment due and payble to AAHA would equal /**/ calculated as follows: ((/**/ - /**/) * 0.10%) - $25,000 = /**/.

4. Usage of License. This license is solely for use in connection with the Program and may not be used for purposes of suggesting AAHA’s approval or endorsement of any other products or services of MWI. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided for in this Agreement, this license will be forfeited immediately by MWI to AAHA.

5. Usage of Proprietary Materials. MWI agrees that it will comply with AAHA’s written guidelines with respect to the use of the Marks, as set forth on Exhibit A. MWI acknowledges and agrees that: (i) it shall not use the AAHA Marks in a manner likely to diminish the AAHA Marks’ commercial value; (ii) it shall not knowingly permit any third party to use the AAHA Marks unless authorized to do so in writing by AAHA; (iii) it shall not knowingly use or permit the use of any mark, name, or image likely to cause confusion with the AAHA Marks; (iv) it shall not use or permit the use the AAHA Marks in such a manner as to create the impression that AAHA has endorsed, directly or indirectly, any of the goods and services of MWI; (v) all goodwill associated with the Marks and the Program shall inure to

AAHA and all goodwill associated with MWI shall inure to MWI; (vi) the AAHA Marks and the Proprietary Materials are and shall remain the sole property of AAHA; and (vi) nothing in this Agreement shall confer in MWI any right of ownership in the AAHA Marks and the Proprietary Materials and MWI shall not make any representation to that effect, or use the Marks or Proprietary Materials in a manner that suggests that such rights of ownership have been conferred.

6. Control of AAHA Proprietary Materials. MWI acknowledges and agrees that AAHA has invested substantial time, money and other resources in the development of its Proprietary Materials. MWI acknowledges and agrees that the Proprietary Materials and all right, title and interest therein, is and shall remain the exclusive property of AAHA.
